  1. I have a FM receiver embedded in my cell phone but I still use that good old 70's USSR radio (Radiotehnika Salute 001) I found in a trash can and repaired a while ago, even though it weighs a lot and needs a huge antenna compared to the cell phone that delivers clear sound and is easy to tune, and is just asking for a headset to be plugged as an antenna to work...
  2. thank you BabylonSister and Prospekt, nice to meet you
  3. I would totally drink it: if I don't drink it, I diminish my chances plus I'll look at that bottle being thirsty and dying whereas if I drink it, I'm not thirsty anymore, for a few hours and I have more chances to get away from that situation...
  4. oO what I am doing here with that dude staring at me, better teleport ASAP
  5. Happy Birthday to you Virus (even though I never got the point of celebrating the day one was born...)
  6. Well I have a lot of cutie snuggly biting mosquitos these days, if you want some I can send them to you I have males that I usually free without killing them, the other, the nasty ones, the females, they get sprayed with Permethrin and then captured and beheaded why ? because I'm tired of being bit 10 times a night so I started my eradication program (I know I will not able to kill them all)
  7. I guess it was slices of bread with butter, radish and peppers on it
  8. French English and kinda German speaker here... I'd love to speak Turkish, Indonesian, Arabic, Spanish, Chinese and Russian but that's in my dreams :|
  9. Personally I would develop more on the self sufficiency side as if I'm able at a said date to live without the support from everything outside, I can survive to anything (supposing that I have proper defenses, though I think a zombie invasion would be very unlikely to happen...)
  10. Well I have that knife, a Douk-douk, from what I read on the internet, it's a french factory that made it for the melanesian market (in the Pacific ocean near Indonesia and Polynesia) in the beginning of the 20th century and it didn't sell well there so they started selling them to people from north Africa and then the whole Africa, they liked those knives because they were cheap but quality and solid knives... Anyway I got mine from the ones that my father collected a while ago, it was waiting in a box and now I got it in my outdoor/geology bag, used it to separate sediments and cut fruits and plants, I don't plan on using it as a weapon... But I sure prefer the good old chisel geologist hammer ! Estwing, made in usa, it's a nice tool (not really a weapon either...):
  11. Nice to meet you Cyrus you like applejack too
  12. Welcome to you Cyrus !

      Thank you Nazmi. Glad to be here!

  13. Well I wrote quite a lot of words, but at first I just wanted to thank my upper neighbor ↑↑↑ for his post that was really interesting to read... and also note the fact that AstroFX and cuteycindyhoney, you might be a tiny little bit paranoïd, no offense but I feel that when I read you (and that's from someone that is often called paranoïd by other people that you hear it ), but at least all this gave me an idea for an article to write on my blog (in french) So, I'm new here, and I find that the poniverse system is a great idea however, personally, I don't like that kind of services, as if the top service is compromised/your account on it, you don't lose one but all the services associated with the general account... and also you can't have multiple strong passwords, which are the start for security even though it's a challenge to learn them all (and not forget any) also for sure when you use a service you put trust in the guys behind, also nothing is 100% invulnerable to anything, an error might have happened somewhere (Errore humanum est) or some new exploit might have been used before being discovered and fixed, however I just read the listing that Feld0 did, and I have to admit you guys taking things seriously here... but well AstroFX, not feeling safe (and we are and will never be 100% safe) in that way is not good, first if you don't want something to leak, just don't post it in the first place (celebrities who happen to share privately naked photos, and afterwards who complain that they have leaked, if you hear me...) also you don't need the same level of security between when you post a pony related public message and when you are a journalist talking important stuff to a political opponent whose life depends on whether he is discovered or not... (it's of course an example from fictional facts) or a personal example: would I chat on skype with someone about ponies or random stuff, yes of course, but would I use skype to talk about any professional/strategic/sensitive/serious matter no I wouldn't and I would laugh at the face at anyone who would propose that to me... (that example only refers to my opinions, you might trust skype if you want, but personally it's (with gmail and facebook) one of the perfect examples of services that are not secure for their users, they might be from random nasty people but not from all threats)) lastly it's all a matter of common sense, logic and evaluation, you have to think the "hacker" way: who that person would be, what would they want to do with your data/credentials, how could they get their hands on them ? why would they even care about that data/credentials? for instance in this case: why would a random person on the internet try to get access to my account on a forum ? well if you got a pseudonym, they will usually not know you so the typical person who would do that is someone who just want to be mean or to know you more, but why you between all the other people they can annoy/stalk ? what could they do with it ? if they get access to a few accounts they can troll and post ads with bots and things, they also can annoy the people who will lose access to their account, know the few things you shared "privately" ("" cause then it's not private anymore ) what are my weaknesses he could use to get the credentials ? do I have a strong password ? do I trust the admins ? is my own machine secure ? do I trust my ISP (even though all the sensitive stuff is normally encrypted so not reachable by the ISP, in theory) also like cuteycindyhoney said, get yourself an e-mail adress that is dedicated for the pony stuff or public things or something like that, separate your mailboxes ! so that the one you use for communications with humans is not clogged with spam and random notifications ! there you got another benefit ! about your IP, it's not that sensitive, they are widely used as a way to recognize people online and also your router should have the proper firewalls to prevent anything from happening (one more time, nothing is 100% safe but again do you trust the company that made the router(well on this one I personally don't but that personal), (also even though it was mentioned by no one, never believe in the paid/free random VPNs/Proxies, because you have to trust them to protect your communications, and you're adding someone else in the chain so you add risk of leak) so it's all a question of being clever which I'm sure you are ! (cause you wouldn't have been concerned about that if you were not...)
  14. Ideally when I like what someone said or did I show that I'm with them on that and when I disagree (as long as it's not people hating another person's creations, ...) I just ignore and move on because I have nothing to add, everyone has the right to have their opinion... and if a reaction is expected from me I just say that everyone has got his opinions and that's their right (as long as it doesn't imply for them to go over the opinions of someone else)... But in practice I'm often forced to take a position in a debate (about my right to use and consider free and open source software as the best ones...) and then the tolerance is gone as in a debate, it's the one with the best arguments who will win, on such occasions I try not to take things too seriously and not to move from the original topic. And if I met a brony donald trump, well I would brohoof him and say that it is a really nice cosplay that he is wearing, strange to cosplay that man but still, a really original cosplay... (I searched for images about brony trump and indeed there has been someone to do that :facehoof: ...)
  15. Ok bye, I should have gone to sleep too long ago but let's say I didn't see the time pass between discussing as usual with the folks on frenchy-ponies then writing this introduction and discussing with you...
  16. Same thing for me, I have a lot to do and these days I have the feeling I keep on doing nothing apart from surfing randomly and sleeping... I had a look to your DA and saw the "random super-pinkie", which is indeed really random, was this frame by frame animation ?
  17. thank you, wow, that's a really fast response oO I'm sorry but I'm having a hard time (not a native speaker or maybe it's because i'm tired...) understanding "I'm interested you taking up animations as well." but about animation I never really put something together, back at the end of 2014 I tried Crazytalk Animator and discovered the puppet/rig/... tool that seemed magical but because of a bad version (crappy translation that made the program unusable because a lot of buttons were without text on them) and the fact that I switched to Linux Debian in the beginning of 2015. Then I installed Synfig, read and watched a bit about it but nothing fancy, but I have already too many projects going on for the moment...
  18. My Favourite Mane 6 Pony: Applejack How did you find MLP Forums?: Honestly, I don't have the slightest clue... I guess it has to do with the fact that I was searching for a global forum: I'm an active member on Frenchy-ponies.fr, and I wanted to see bronies from elsewhere than France (we got a guy from the USA that comes sometimes and people from Quebec, Swiss and Belgium but that's not representative from the global thing) and also how a bigger community manages itself because from what I see at frenchy-ponies, shitstorms happen quite often, for silly reasons and things like that... I guess it responds more the why than the how... let's say there is no how, and that I found about MLPForums by chance... How you became a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: always saw MLP memes and funny images on a french imageboard, on October the 23 of 2014 searched for MLP games and images for some reason, found Banned from Equestria, watched the first episodes cause it felt strange to see a pony dating sim, found out about the brony fandom, joined the herd, one year later joined a first forum, on july the 1st joined MLPForums but didn't have time to do a proper introduction. Well I guess there is some kind of Layout problem and I can't access advanced editing mode, I'm trying to solve it, sorry. Because I'm lazy, I'm just going to translate and adapt the introduction I made on the other forum I'm on: Hi bros and siss, I introduce myself: Nazmi, 17. French and Turkish, born and living in Upper-Normandy, student in Biology and Geology next year, I have quite a lot of work projects, but I'm still hesitant between Field Geologist cause I like geology since I was like 3 or 4, or "farmer" growing edible plants and mushrooms or maybe crafting hardware (open electronics, custom made products, ...) or maybe a bit of all three. I also advocate as much as I can in favor of free and open software, hardware, culture, data and resources. I collect quite a lot of stuff (fossils, minerals, plants, coins and artifacts, retro computers, ...), I also like to grow stuff but for the moment I do not do much apart from a specimen of Dracaena sanderiana I found a while ago lying in the form of a leaf on the ground and that is now a nice plant: ahttps://lut.im/92eUxdGuoB/Z7Kqhzn78DMlIwoD.JPG and a Mango (Mangifera indica) tree that is growing slowly but growing, here are it's first weeks: ayoutube also, because of my family, I kinda grow Hazelnuts (Corylus sp.) and Poplar trees (Populus alba), maybe if you eat Ferrero® Rochers® or Nutella® you are consuming the great hazelnuts from turkey, first producer in the world ! Here is roughly all the stuff I do, if there are some tinkerers, naturalists, people who like plants or librists/linuxians/... There was also a form to fill on frenchy-ponies, I'll translate it too cause that's kinda too short I think: My pseudo ? Not hard, it's my name: Nazmi + FR it pronounces like: http://nazmi.fr/medias/sons/nazmifr.mp3 Online videogames ? Not much these days but if someone likes UrT or OA, we could play someday if you want Other animated shows ? World Masterpiece Theatre (TomSawyer, Princesse Sarah, Les Misérables, Belle Et Sebastien, Heidi, ...), Les malheurs de Sophie (de Segur), the things from Marc du Pontavice (Oggy and the croaches, ...), Maya the bee G1, L'alinea, Donald Duck, La noiraude, The Shadocks, the fanmade animated series, Les mystérieuses cités d'or G1, ... (I'm sorry but I can't find the English name of some of these shows as they have often been made only in French) those ones might be more familiar: the amazing world of gumball, gravity falls, adventure time, Toradora and Accel World What do you do related to MLP ? I'm trying to learn how to draw on GIMP and Inkscape (with a small penpartner from 1999 and a Fujitsu Stylistic (digitizer made by wacom) this second one is kinda like a little cintiq but I still have to fix a few things on it, both are scraped from junk), but of course when I need the files, I can't put my hand on them, I'll try to edit that tomorrow, but there is not much to see anyway(my OC drawn on inkscape and rainbow dash made on gimp a while back)... I also have a few projects: One is making a fork of supertuxkart to make a superponykart (replacing titles, musics, karts and tracks), it's on the way but because of a shitstorm on frenchy-ponies it's interrupted right now, if you are interested in joining and helping to bring this project to life we (me+the other 3-4 people involved right now) would be pleased to add you to the team but as I said there have been some silly tensions so I don't really know how it's gonna go, but what I'm sure of is that with or without the people involved in that useless craziness, that project will continue... Another one is subtitling stuff, like Friendship is Witchcraft that I started a while ago but I'm having difficulties understanding a few words and jokes in each episode, I hope there will be people to help me around here [] I'm also planning to learn synfig animation but for the moment I don't have the time and skill to make any animation (even poor quality) Are you part of other fandoms ? Linuxian, Librist, Naturalist, I also like zootopia a lot (like in watching it something like 10 times) but I'm not a Furry Thank you for having read me
